I have been SOD less for almost 9 months now!
I was able to successfully recreate a scenario where a SOD occurred by installing the latest GAlarm (which i hit standby while in the middle of the install), it took 7min before it finally turned off then proceeded to do all the functions i had clicked/tried when it was "SOD"ing, also since the CPU is downclocked (not literally but figuratively)
a lovely program that would help this would be one that makes the CPU not downclock for 30+ sec after you hit the power button for "standby" (does it exist? dont know... i know a no2chem tool was made to do this on the mogul... but since hes basically dead/left the WM world... well ill just leave it at that) that would allow whatever program thats eating cycles/r-w to finish before it goes into complete standby

Great observation and explanation. My experience as well exactly!
